EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX
AND ORGANELLES

Extracellular Matrix
Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a meshwork composed of
macro molecules secreted by cells:
Collagen (Over 30%)
Non-collagen glycoprotein
Aminoglycan and proteoglycan
Elastin

Collagen:
The ratio of collagen is over 30% of total protein quantity in human
body. Collagen forms the meshwork in matrix. Collagen is synthesized and
transferred out by fibroblasts, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, and some of
epithelial cells.
So far, more than 20 types of collagen have been established at least.
The type I, II, III, Ⅴand Ⅺ are the fibro collagens that have striation on
them. The collagen I from embryo or new born baby is easy to be extracted
because the conjugation between molecules is inefficient. With aging, the
conjugation is increased and collagen I will become hard that cause the
hard skin, vascular tissue, that means “Old”.
Vitamin C is an important helper factor to the synthesis of collagen I.
The inefficiency of vitamin C will cause blood vessels easy to be broken and
bleeding that we call as “Scurvy”.

Fibronectin (FN):
FN is a type of large glycoprotein. FN can link cell on to ECM.
FN can exist in blood plasma or body fluid(0.3mg/ml)as soluble
type (Plasma FN) and in ECM or cell surface as insoluble type (Cellular
FN).
Plasma FN exists in a molecule formed a dimer by two subunits linked at
C terminal as a “V” shape. Cell FN is a polymer.
Some short fragments of the FN chain are the smallest structural
units identified by FN receptors on cell surface. For example, the RGD
(Arg-Gly-Asp) sequence existing in the cell binding domain located in
the middle of chain is the site that can be recognized by some integrin
receptors located on cell surface.

12
Laminin (LN):
LN is a large type of glycoprotein too. Matrix is formed by LN and
collagen IV. LN is the earliest expressed component of ECM during the
embryonic development. LN molecule is composed of one heavy chain and
two light chains as a cross shape.
At least, there are 8 cell binding sites in LN molecule. For example, the 5
mers peptide, IKVAV sequence, is located in the site near to the ball domain
of long arm that can bind to neuron cells and enhance the neuron growth.
7 types of LN molecules and 8 types of subunit (α1,α2,α3,β1,β2, β3,γ1,γ2)
have been identified so far. But, it is different from FN that each subunit is
encoded by different structural gene. About 50 sugar chains are linked to the
N terminals of LN protein, so, LN is the most complicated glycoprotein that
we known so far.
Excepting LN and collagen IV, entactin, perlecan, decorin and other
proteins exist in ECM.

17
Proteoglycan:
Proteoglycan is the compound of GAG (except hyaluronic acid) and core protein
(Shown as the fig above). The polymer of proteoglycan is composed of single
proteoglycan and hyaluronic acid.
The molecule weight of polymer of proteoglycan may be over 108KD, and its
volume may be bigger than bacteria.
Chondroitin sulfate and keratin sulfate are the main members of GAG from the
aggrecan that forms cartilage. The inefficiency of the quantity of the both GAGs can
cause the inhibition of bones development and short limbs and trunk. We call these
persons “Dwarf”.
Elastin:
Elastin meshwork makes tissue soft and elastic. The extension of elastin is
stronger 5 times than rubber band at least. In the tissues of old people, the synthesis
of elastin is decreased and the degeneration increased, that is why the tissues of old
people became hard, rough.

The functions of ECM:
1. Plays important role to the survival, growth, and death of cells. Eukaryotic cells
must attach to ECM for their growth excepting blood cells, that we call as
anchorage dependence. For example, epithelial cells will turn to apoptosis if they
are separated from ECM. Different ECM will give cell different effects. The
proliferation of fibroblast will be quick up on a fibronectin matrix, and slow
down on a laminin matrix, but the response of epithelial cells to the matrix is just
opposite.
2. Controlls the shape of cell. Cells will be spherical if they grow with ECM
separately. A cell can present a different shape if it grow on a different ECM. The
mechanism of this regulation is mediated by the receptors on ECM that regulates
the cytoskeleton.
3.Regulates the differentiation by the interaction between cell and special
component of ECM. For example, myoblast (sarcoblast) can keep its original
shape on fibronectin, but it will stop its proliferation to differentiate and fuse to
myotube.
4.Mediates cell migration. ECM can regulate the speed and direction of the
migration. Laminin can enhance the migration of tumor cells, and the migration
of other cells is dependent on ECM too. This dependence is very important during
the embryo development and wounds healing.
So, ECM mediate almost every event in cell and life story.

Organelles
Many complicated function areas are packaged by inner membrane
inside eukaryotic cells that we call as organelle, or endomembrane system.
Organelles include nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi body (Golgi
complex), lysosome, mitochondrion, chloroplast, and others.
Every organelle is associated with some special protein for protein
synthesis, modification, transportation or storage.
Protein sorting:
The proteins and lipids synthesized inside cells must be transported into
specific organelles firstly, then transported out cells like the follows:
22
Signal sequence or targeting sequence
Sorting receptor
Sorting receptor is the receptor located on the endomembrane that
can recognize the targeting sequence of specific protein and transfer
the protein into organelle. Some organelle is the place where proteins
are modified, for example, endoplasmic reticulum.
23
Sorting signals for protein sorting:
Sorting signals are the special peptide sequences or pleated structures that can
lead protein directory transportation. Sorting signals lead proteins transported into
organelles from plasma, or into plasma and ER from other organelles.
① Signal sequence: A linear sequence existed in the primary structure of
protein that is composed of 15-60 amino acids usually. Some of them will be
degenerated by signal peptidase after they finished the directory transportation of
protein. Each signal sequence determines a specific protein transportation
direction.
② Signal patch: A pleated structure existed in the tertiary structure of
protein. The sorting signal that leads protein into lysosome is signal patch. Signal
patch is difficult to be isolated from the complicated tertiary structure of protein.

26
The ways by that proteins are sorted and transported:
1. Gated transportation:
For example, nucleopore can transport macromolecules selectively and
automatically.
2. Transmembrane transportation:
For example, passing through the translocator on the mitochondrion, the
synthesized proteins located in plasma can be transported into
mitochondrion under the leading of signal sequence with a linear molecule.
3. Vesicular transportation:
Proteins are selectively packaged as vesicles and directively transported
into target organelles. For examples, transportation from ER to Golgi body,
formation of lysosome from Golgi body, adsorption of nutrition and hormone
by cells.
There are three capsid proteins can form vesicles to vesicular
transportation: clathrin, COPI and COPII.

capsid vesicle.

Forming of clathrin capsid vesicle
30
The direction of vesicles is dependent on the marker protein and receptor of
target. The key proteins for that are SNAREs (soluble NSF attachment protein
receptor) and Rabs (targeting GTPase).
The fusion between HIV and CD4 is almost same to SNAREs way:
31
Adsorption of low density lipoproteins (LDL) by cells:
LDL is very important to cause severe cardiovascular diseases. Cholesterols
can form LDL (a vesicle actually) with phospholipids and proteins. LDL are
released into blood from liver cells. The molecule weight of LDL vesicle is
3X106Da in 20~30nm diameter. There are about 1500 cholesterol molecules
packaged inside the vesicle. So, the LDL outer layer is single layer of lipid and
a very huge protein (apolipoprotein B-100) that can bind to the receptor of
target cell.
Usually, cells will synthesize the LDL receptors when they need cholesterol.
But, if too much cholesterol is accumulated in cell, cell will stop the synthesis of
receptor. As the result, LDL level in blood will go up. For some persons, a
mutation of LDL receptor gene causes their blood LDL level going up. LDL is
much easier to attach on to the inner wall of artery than high density lipoprotein
(HDL), especially in brain and heart to form the atherosclerosis that is number
one killer to human being now in the world.
32

Endoplasmic reticulum:
Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER)
There are ribosome particles attached on RER, and no any on SER, that is
why we see RER under microscope with rough membrane and gave it the name,
rough endoplasmic reticulum.
The function of ER is to synthesize proteins and lipids.
35

SER
37
Functions of ER:
1. Synthesis of proteins:
Usually, proteins synthesis is originally started in plasma and finished on
ribosome. But, some proteins synthesis will be finished in RER after synthesis
starting. For examples, ① secreted proteins, such as, antibodies, hormones;
② transmembrane proteins; ③ Divided enzymes, such as hydrolases in
lysosome; ④ Modified proteins, such as glycoprotein.
There are 5 factors associated with the transferred synthesis at least:
① Signal peptide: A polypeptides that leads new synthesized peptide chain
to ER, and it located at the N terminal of new synthesized peptide chain. Signal
peptide is composed of 16~30 amino acids, and 6-15 of them are the positive
charged and non-polarized amino acids. Signal peptide is named as start
transfer sequence also.
② Signal recognition particle (SRP): SRP is composed of 6 different
polypeptides, and binds to a 7S RNA. Its molecule weight is 325KD. SRP can
bind to signal sequence to cause the protein synthesis paused.
③ SRP receptor: A integral protein can bind to SRP specifically.
④ Stop transfer sequence: A special peptide sequence with a high affinity to
ER membrane. It can stop the peptide chain goes into ER and change the
chain as a transmembrane protein.
⑤ Translocator.

2. Protein modification:
The modifications include glycosylation (saccharification), hydroxylation,
acylation, and bisulfide bond formation. The glycosylation is the most important
here.
Glycosylation can: ① have proteins resistant to the digestion by enzymes of
digestion system; ② give proteins markers, signals, or cluster of determining
(CD); ③ have some proteins pleated correctly.
O-linked glycosylation: Link galactose or N-acetylgalactosamine to the OH
of Ser, Thr and Hyp. The reaction is carried out on Golgi body.
N-linked glycosylation: Link N-acetylglucosamine to NH2 of Asn. The
reaction is carried out on ER.

3. Fold, assemble, and transportation of new synthesized peptide chain.
4. Synthesis of membrane lipids: Most of membrane lipids are synthesized in
ER. Synthesized membrane lipids will be transported to Golgi body and
lysosome with vesicular transportation way.
5. Detoxication: The P450 of SER is a monooxygenase (mixed function oxidase
or hydroxylase) that is distributed on SER and other organelles. P450 can
metabolize the fat soluble (liposoluble) toxic substance into water soluble
substance to be ejected out of body. But, sometime, P450 can activate the
cancer inducer during the detoxication.
6. Synthesis of steroid hormones: The enzymes in the SER, mitochondrion,
Golgi body of the endocrine cells of genital glands and adrenal glands take duty
to synthesize steroid hormones.
7. Regulation to the level of blood sugar.
8. Construction of some special structures: For example, the sarcoplasmic
reticulum specialized by the SER in muscle cells can store Ca+ as the signal
substance for the muscle cell excitation.
41
Golgi body:

The Golgi bodies in cultured epithelial cells
(Golgi body: red; Nucleus: green)
43
The enzymes in Golgi body include glycosyltransferase, sulfo-glycosyltransferase,
redox enzymes, phosphatases, protein kinases, mannosidase, transferases, and
phospholipases.
Function regions:
Cis Golgi network (CGN) is the entrance to receive the synthesized substances
and sort them into medial Golgi.
Medial Golgi is the place where the glycosyls modification and glycolipids
formation are finished.
Trans Golgi network (TGN) is the exit to export the sorted and packaged proteins.
Each part of Golgi body has different feature to cytochemical reactions:
① Osmiophilic reaction: displays CGN.
② Cytochemical reaction of thiamine pyrophosphatase (TPP enzyme): displays
TGN.
③ Cytochemical reaction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphatase
(NADP or Co II enzyme): displays medial Golgi.
④ Cytochemical reaction of cytidylatase (CMP enzyme): displays the vesicles and
tubes closed to TGN. CMP enzyme is the marker enzyme to lysosome. Lysosome
is manufactured in these vesicles and tubes.

Function of Golgi body:
1. Glycosylation of protein: N-linked glycosylation is started on ER and
finished on Golgi body. Proteins will be serially modified when they pass through
the Golgi body from Cis region to Trans region. O-linked glycosylation is started
and finished in Golgi body. Glycosylation can mark protein, change the structure
of polypeptide, and stabilize protein molecules. Proteoglycan is formed in Golgi
body also.
2. Exportation, secretion and transportation of manufactured and modified
proteins: Based on the signal peptide and patch, Golgi body can sort
synthesized proteins on SER. Protein molecules CGN

(modified there)
form vesicles in TGN
vesicles are fused with plasma of

vesicles are released from TGN.
3. Transformation of membrane: New synthesized membrane in ER can be
transferred into Golgi body to be remanufactured and modified, then, transferred
into plasma membrane with a transporting vesicle that can be fused to plasma
membrane, that recruits plasma membrane.
4. Hydrolyze proteins as active molecules: The N or C terminals can be cut off
or hydrolyze protein molecule as polypeptides. For examples, insulin and
neuropeptides.
5. Play role to form lysosome.
6. Play role to form the cell wall of plant.
7. Synthesize the cellulose and pectine in cell wall of plant.
46
Lysosome:
Primary lysosome
Lysosome
Secondary lysosome
Residual body
Primary lysosome:
Primary lysosome is formed and secreted by Golgi body. It obtains over 60
hydrolases without activity. When the lysosome was broken or substance else
entered the lysosome, the enzymes can be activated immediately. The
hydrolases include protease, nuclease, lipase, phosphatase, sulfatase,
phospholipases, and others. All of them are the acidic hydrolases with a favorite
pH (5.0) to their activity.
A proton pump is located on lysosome membrane to input H+ into cell for the
low pH maintenance.
Lysosome membrane is highly glycosylated to protect the membrane protein
of themselves from digested.
47
Primary lysosome
48
Secondary lysosome:
Secondary lysosome is the lysosome that is digesting the substances from
outside of itself (phagolysosome) or inside of itself (autophagolysosome).
49
Residual body (post-lysosome): Residual body is the lysosome that has lost its
enzyme activity and contains the undigested residues only. Residual body can be
exported out of cell, or remained in cell, such as, lipofuscins in liver cell.
50
Function of lysosome:
Lysosome is a digestion organelle in cell. It is associated with cell autolysis,
defense, and utilization to some substances.
Digestion in cell: The macromolecules entered by phagocytosis can be
digested by lysosome to be utilized by cell. For example, the LDL can be
digested for the sterol utilization. Lysosome is unique digestion organ in
unicellular organism.
Apoptosis: The cell that is going to apoptosis will form an apoptotic body that
can be swallowed by macrophage and form a phagosome (secondary lysosome).
The apoptotic cell will be eliminated away from tissue by this way.
Autolysis: To clear away the wasted bio macromolecules and old organelles.
Defense: Macrophage kills pathogens using its lysosome.
Regulation to endocrine: Thyroglobulin can be digested in lysosome as
thyroxin.
Formation of acrosome of sperm: Acrosome helps sperm to enter ovum.
51
Lysosome and diseases:
The damage, function inhibition, non-digestion, gene mutation or genetic
deficiency of lysosome can cause many diseases for human body, for examples,
silicosis (pneumosilicosis), pulmonary tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis (The
lysosome is easy to break and release out the enzymes that can cause the
inflammation), and storage diseases (caused by the mutation of the enzymes in
lysosome). The storage diseases include Tay-Sachs disease (台-萨氏综合征),
Pompe disease (II型糖原累积症), Gaucher disease (脑苷脂沉积症), Inclusion-cell
disease (细胞内含物症), and others. All patient children will die within two years.
Peroxisome (microbody):
0.2~1.5μm in diameter. Over 40 oxidases have be found in peroxisome.
Oxidases can oxidize substrates and release out hydrogen peroxide (H2O2):
RH2+O2 → R+H2O2
Peroxisome take the β-oxidation of the fatty acids in animals. If you use some
medicine of fat cleaner to rat, you will detect a 10 folds higher concentration of
oxidases in rat liver cells than normal.
Peroxisome can take a detoxifying function that oxidizes the toxic substances
with H2O2. For example, about a quarter of the alcohol you drank in will be oxidized
as acetaldehyde in your liver cells.
Plant peroxisome can: ① join photorespiration; ② take β-oxidation of fat.
The signal to lead oxidases from plasma enter peroxisome is -Ser-Lys-LeuCOO-。
The syndrome of Zellweger (脑肝肾综合征) is caused by abnormal
peroxisome (blank peroxisome). The infant will die within 3-6 months.
